Abstract :
[en] The piezoelectric properties of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and K0·5Bi0·5TiO3 (KBT) electrospun composite nanofibers were studied in view of their application for Piezoelectric generator (PEG) devices. The orientation of the polar β-phase throughout the PVDF/KBT nanofibers was investigated at the nanoscale, revealing a maximum β-phase content of 67%. Remarkably enhanced piezoelectric responses were observed in the PVDF-KBT composite, supported by comprehensive analyses including local hysteresis loops piezoresponse mapping and advanced mapping AFM-based techniques. The PVDF/KBT nanofiber-based PEG demonstrated consistent performance, with an output voltage of 16 V, a current of 0.85 μA/cm2, and a power density of 13.6 μW/cm2 at 107 Ω, showcasing its potential as a sustainable energy solution with the ability to recharge portable electronic devices.
